Legendarily reticent perverse & misleading Prince is one of the few remaining 80s superstars who still perhaps remains unexplained. Now a firm fixture in the pop canon where such classics as violet Rain" " Sign o the Times" & " Parade" regularly feature in Best Ever Album polls Prince is still as he ever was an enigma. His live performances are legendary (21 Nights at the O2 in 2007) & while recent releases have been modestly successful at best his influence on urban music & Rn B in particular has never been more evident. The Minneapolis Sound can now be heard everywhere. Matt Thornes " Prince" through years of research & interviews with ex-Revolution members such as Wendy & Lisa is an account of a pop maverick whose experiments with rock funk techno & jazz revolutionized pop. With reference to every song released & unreleased over 35 years of recording Prince will stand for years to come as the go-to book on the Great Man." ...
